In the tenth month of the golden autumn, Tang Shun and the mighty Hanyi Guards escorted Lu Yanchao back to Yanyang City.

At this time, everyone in the Lu Mansion was confident that Tang Shun could successfully rescue his master. Even though they had just experienced a huge catastrophe, everyone was still feeling relaxed and happy.

After all, nothing is more important than surviving safely.

Yue Qingluo accompanied Tang Youning, who was about to give birth, to stay in the Qirong courtyard. Seeing that her daughter had always been restless these days, she scolded her angrily: "You girl, you are almost a mother. Rili still has a droopy face."

"Mother, I'm worried that the emperor will not forgive brother Yanchao."

Tang Youning frowned and said.

"Stop talking nonsense."

Yue Qingluo glared at her lightly: "I know your father's ability very well. When he was in Tanzhou, he could use Crescent Academy to stir up troubles. Now that he has entered the capital, it is no longer a problem. Both the emperor and Zhang Jinnian have to How afraid are you of the Crescent Party?"

After a pause, she continued with a smile: "Just put your heart in your stomach, and your father will definitely bring your brother Yanchao back unscathed."

Thinking of the mourning star who was kicked out of the Lu family, Yue Qingluo became more and more excited and happy: "When Yan Chao returns to the Lu family, you will still be the wife of the family head. Without the ties of his second uncle, from now on this The Lu family is completely up to you and your wife, so of course your father can only point to you in the Tang family."

"But the second aunt has some abilities after all. I'm afraid she will use some despicable means to harm me."

Thinking of the tortures she suffered in the past, Tang Youning spoke with lingering fear.

"I gave her ten courages and she wouldn't dare."

Yue Qingluo said confidently: "Without the support of Xiyuan Bank, how can she have the confidence to be arrogant?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the maid running in in a hurry and loudly reported: "Auntie, madam, the master and uncle are back."

An infinite smile suddenly broke out on Yue Qingluo's face, and she quickly stood up and started to walk out: "Look what I said, your father never disappoints people."

When he reached the door, he turned around and told the maid in the room: "Xi'er, take care of the young lady. I'll go greet the master and uncle."

After giving the instructions, Yue Qingluo led the two female envoys and ran out of the courtyard in great joy. When they arrived at the gate of Defu, Jiang Rui and the Lu family were waiting outside the door.

"Congratulations, Aunt-in-law."

Lu Boting was the first to say: "Your Excellency, the Minister, has lived up to expectations and brought back Yan Chao. Your family can be reunited again."

"We rejoice together."

Yue Qingluo and Jiang Rui looked at each other complacently, and said with a smile: "With my uncle here, the big ship of the Lu family cannot sink."

A group of people were congratulating each other when they saw Tang Shun riding a tall horse and leading a large group of people towards Lu Mansion.

"The emperor really values ​​my uncle, and he actually asked Han Yiwei to personally escort him."

Yue Qingluo raised her eyes and stared at the majestic team of cold-clothed guards, all following Tang Shun in an orderly manner. After being married to him for so many years, this was the first time she had seen her master so majestic.

Even after the son-in-law was brought back, he was detained in a prison car, which was really a bit disgraceful.

"Quick, go pick up my uncle."

Yue Qingluo was so anxious that she kept ordering: "How can I ask my uncle to return home like this?"

"Yes."

The two maids immediately responded and left.

Tang Shun was riding on his horse absent-mindedly, and suddenly heard something moving in the prison car. He turned around to look, and saw that the Lu family members were crowding around, blocking Han Yiwei's path.

"stop."

Tang Shun glared at Yue Qingluo angrily and scolded sternly: "What are you planning to do?"

Yue Qingluo smiled and said, "Take my uncle back home."

"presumptuous."

Seeing the murderous intent in the eyes of the cold-clothed guards, Tang Shun quickly shouted angrily: "I was ordered to lead the criminal Lu Yanchao to parade through the streets. Three days later, the car was broken into pieces in the city. Why don't you disperse quickly?"

"what?"

Everyone looked surprised.

"Parade?"

"Want to break the car?"

"That's not right, Sir, what is going on?"

Lu Boting stepped forward and asked in confusion.

<divclass="contentadv">Tang Shun, with a livid face, raised the imperial edict in his hand and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I am grateful that Lu Yanchao was the only one involved in the incident in Quzhou. He is not implicated. If you dare to provoke trouble, you will be punished with the same crime."

Hearing this, Lu Yanchao couldn't hold it any longer and swayed the prison car crazily.

No wonder his father-in-law didn't want to get close to him along the way. It turned out that he was hiding something from him.

"Grandma, save your grandson quickly."

He looked at Jiang Rui in horror and kept asking for help.

Jiang Rui felt a thunderclap in the clear sky above his head, and was so shocked that he had not yet recovered from the news he had just heard.

After listening to her grandson's repeated pleas for help, she narrowed her eyes to Tang Shun and said with resentment, "My lord, are you going to personally imprison and execute your son-in-law?"

Tang Shun choked immediately.

Whatever he can do, he cannot disobey the Holy Will.

"Keep marching."

Tang Shun closed his eyes cruelly: "Anyone who dares to stop us will be shot to death."

"master."

"Lord servant."

Yue Qingluo and Lu Boting chased after them, but were stopped by a guard in cold clothes holding a knife.

Tang Youning, who was driven out of the house, heard that her husband was about to be hit by a car and was so frightened that she fainted.

"Third uncle, aunt-in-law, hurry up, the wife of the house has fainted."

Lu Boting's eldest son Lu Wenchi shouted loudly.

There was a panic in front of the house. Seeing a group of people hurriedly helping Tang Youning back to the house, Jiang Rui's heart clenched tightly.

She began to realize that she shouldn't listen to Tang Shun's lies and completely broke up with Lu Wenqian.

No matter how prestigious the Crescent Party was, it couldn't be compared to the attendants who stayed with the emperor all day long.

What's more, Zhang Jinnian was responsible for helping Emperor Ming Zhao ascend the throne.

After thinking about it for a while, she frowned and could only tell Lu Wenchi: "Wenchi, go and call Sanniang to Taoyuan Village and ask her second brother to come to the palace immediately."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Junwan walked out of the courtyard on her own, passing directly in front of her with dull eyes.

"Sanniang."

Jiang Rui was so anxious that he called her to stop.

"Mom is so ridiculous."

Lu Junwan kept sneering: "Is it possible that mother thinks that the second brother is just a decoration that can be done as you please?"

She was already desperate for this family and didn't want to stay in this house for a moment longer.

"Sanniang, where are you going?"

Jiang Rui shouted so loud that his throat broke, but Lu Junwan ignored him and left the Lu Mansion.

"Yun Qing, hurry up and follow me, don't let her do anything stupid."

Jiang Rui had no choice but to tell Jiang Yunqing to keep an eye on Lu Junwan.

Just as his eyes were clear, he saw a lot of people coming from all directions. They crowded in front of the Lu Mansion and shouted: "We are merchants who came from Quzhou. The head of the Lu family took the salt in our hands and stocked it." He stole our salt and hasn’t paid the price yet, so please ask the head of the Lu family to come out and give an explanation.”

One wave after another came up again: "We are from the dye shop in the suburbs of Tanzhou City. In the past two months, the Lu family has taken away tens of thousands of silk cloths. Butler Lu has not yet delivered the payment to the door. Our dye shop can no longer support it."

Jiang Rui's head was pounding after hearing this. She turned to look at Lu Wenchi and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

Lu Wenchi frowned tightly: "Auntie, due to the rebellion in Quzhou, the Lu family's business has suffered a lot. Many of the merchants' goods have gone into the Lu family's warehouse. Because of this rebellion, our Lu family cannot do anything. If the goods are transferred out, the payment will naturally not be delivered to the merchants."

After a pause, he continued: "Although the Emperor does not implicate the Lu family, the turmoil in Quzhou has caused heavy losses to merchants and many people's homes, and the Lu family needs to compensate for these."

Jiang Rui sighed sadly.

This is really adding insult to injury.
